All I am trying to do is get mozilla to open up automatically after the computer has booted. Like putting a shotcut to a program in the startup folder in M$? That didn't sound too difficult until I tried doing it.
Right now I am booting to run level "init 5". The stations will not have keyboards or mice to open mozilla. I also need it to autologin to but I want to start with mozilla open after boot.
I am running Fedora Core 1.
I tried adding commands to the rc.local file but the rc.local file doesn't run at boot? If I just open command line and type mozilla the browser comes up, so I tried adding mozilla and I tried adding /usr/bin/mozilla too. Neither worked!
Just an opinion, rc.local is ran on boot. (ie: Before X has had a chance to load.) This could be why Mozilla won't load for you.
Go for the auto-start option in your window manager, good luck

EDIT: Under my details, is my location (/Australia/Victroia/Melbourne) kicking out the formatting of the table? At home it seems fine, but here at school it looks out of whack.
